The layer is applied using a Philips-developed vacuum-bonding technology, securing an unrivalled uniform thickness of 100µm. The disc can withstand heavy use, fingerprints, scratches and dirt without the need for a protective cartridge. Philips Blu-ray discs are far superior to standard CDs and DVDs.

Precision tooled stampers guarantee superior quality

Philips Blu-ray discs are manufactured by a unique Philips-developed process that uses state-of-the-art deep UV mastering equipment to produce stampers used for injection molding of the BD discs. Philips controls every aspect of the complete manufacturing process under one roof. The result ensures excellent reproducibility and quality.

Error correction system ensures recording and playability

Blu-ray discs offer an advanced error correction system much more powerful than in CDs and DVDs, ensuring maximum protection of your data and video.

Stable inorganic recording layers ensure reliability

The recording layers are made from highly stable inorganic layers that are unaffected by exposure to light, ensuring longevity of the disc. This type of inorganic recording layer is a significant improvement over the organic layers presently used in recordable CD and DVD discs and delivers more stable operability and longer disc life.
